Grey�s Anatomy star T.R. Knight has defended his decision to date a man 16 years his junior � insisting they �love each other.� Knight, 35, has been involved with 19-year-old Mark Cornelson since February and the age gap has put their romance under intense scrutiny. But the actor is convinced that although some people might take a negative view � it doesn�t matter because their relationship is so special.
He tells People.com, �It�s bound to raise some eyebrows but we love each other. (He is) an amazing guy. I love being around him. I love what we have.�
Knight admits that although it is too soon to think about a wedding, he definitely thinks his relationship with Cornell will last. He adds, �We�ve only known each other for six months, so I think it�s a little soon to consider marriage. I don�t think you date anyone that you don�t see a future with.�
